UTSA’s Coker acknowledged by Texas lawmakers

State Rep. Lyle Larson and State Sen. Leticia Van de Putte of San Antonio have introduced resolutions acknowledging UTSA football coach Larry Coker’s career.

Coker, a native of Okemah, Okla., was in Austin on Thursday for the occasion.

In part, the Larson-authored resolution said that Coker has “established the UTSA program as a rising force” in college football and that the 83rd Texas Legislature honors the coach for his “noteworthy” career and extends “sincere best wishes for continued success.”
